    AllSaints Founder Stuart Trevor on building a fashion brand that makes NO new clothes

    What if the most sustainable fashion brand was one that didn’t make any new clothes? In this episode of Marketing in the Madness, recorded live at the Retail Technology Show, Katie Street sits down with Stuart Trevor - founder of AllSaints and now founder of the eponymous fashion brand, Stuart Trevor. Stuart shares the story behind building AllSaints into one of Britain’s most recognisable fashion brands, from his early obsession with David Bowie and customised vintage clothing to securing orders from some of the world’s biggest department stores during his first season. He also explains why he returned to fashion with a completely different business model: creating designer collections using vintage, recycled and upcycled clothing rather than producing new garments.
